Over the past 3 years, our dedicated team has been working hard to finalize construction and leasing for The Row at Reston Station, the second phase of the five-phase Reston Station development. This premier 1.5 million square foot development will include Virginia’s first and only JW Marriott hotel and branded residential tower, the luxury BLVD Haley residential tower, and two Trophy-class office towers. Supplementing these world-class buildings are premium retail offerings that include a flagship 50,000 square foot VIDA health and wellness facility, the D.C. area’s first Puttshack location that will provide an upscale, tech-themed mini-golf experience with a full bar and restaurant, and Ebbitt House, the first ever expansion of D.C.’s famous Old Ebbitt Grill. A 2,500 space parking garage will easily accommodate all tenants and guests at Northern Virginia’s newest must-visit destination that is set to deliver later this fall.” Mr. Clemente concluded, “Finally, I would like to sincerely thank every member of the Comstock team, as well as our loyal shareholders, customers, and partners for contributing to our success in 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) from continuing operations, the most directly comparable financial measure as measured in accordance with GAAP, to Adjusted EBITDA: Three Months Ended December 31, Year Ended December 31, 2024 2023 2024 2023 Net income (loss) $ 2,377 $ 1,870 $ 14,560 $ 7,784 Interest income (169) (96) (672) (96) Income taxes 568 (267) (3,835) 368 Depreciation and amortization 77 — 302 212 Stock-based compensation 205 191 945 968 (Gain) loss on real estate ventures 75 467 297 1,187 Adjusted EBITDA $ 3,133 $ 2,165 $ 11,597 $ 10,423 The increases in Adjusted EBITDA for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 are primarily driven by significant increases in recurring fee-based property and parking management revenue and supplemental asset management fee revenue. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) from continuing operations, excluding the impact of interest expense (net of interest income), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and gain or loss on equity method investments in real estate ventures. We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate financial performance, analyze the underlying trends in our business and establish operational goals and forecasts that are used when allocating resources. We expect to compute Adjusted EBITDA consistently using the same methods each period. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure because it permits investors to better understand changes over comparative periods by providing financial results that are unaffected by certain non-cash items that are not considered by management to be indicative of our operational performance. While we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors when evaluating our business, it is not prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and therefore should be considered supplemental in nature. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute, for other financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies. COMSTOCK HOLDING COMPANIES, INC. Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited; In thousands) 6
